“each time you neglect your best self by not taking action on the things that matter to you deep down, you are training your subconscious brain that being mediocre is ok”
Timothy Mark
After an intense week and a wonderful weekend, This is what I came across some minute ago. A wonderful post by Timothy Marc (from Do something rad). What’s Timothy talking about here is the concept of best self development.
How can we embrace our best in-depth self?
Is there any way to discover it?
There’s no easy answer, and I won’t probably be sufficiently objective in showing you how easy it is to reach your goals. But… I can show you the way to do this. Also, keep in mind that what you find below is content based on my personal experience. This is what I’ve changed my life with. This is what I did in full time during my last year, and I want you to do the same if you really want to see results in your life, if you really want to go to that next level, taking that next step towards excellence and self actualization.
How to reach that extremely deep level change you’re craving for
Challenge yourself (the hard way),
Train hard, develop the personality traits you love the most and discard those that you don’t really like. Allow good stuff and abundance in your life, discover new things to change the (boring?) life you’re living. Get your performance to the next level, the way you want it to be, the way you can feel safe and optimal with it.
Challenge your core beliefs,
If you’re not sure about what your true potential is, start discovering new passions, get involved in new, unexpected activities. Listen to a different kind of music in the next 10 minutes, build new habits, examine which one is the one that suits your needs the best; live your life on the edge, look for adrenaline rushes, and do amazing things which will help you discover your true nature. Be patient in looking for cues and signs which let you know your life has really changed. Look for establishing a balance in the way your life is, and the way you want it to be. Discover new things and get to know new, successful people. Make your life successful.
Challenge the way you look at things,
never expect others to create an impression for the things you perceive on your own. If you can, always be mindful about the details a certain experience evokes in you, let your senses be awaken, even if you happen to feel down, on an occasional stressful situation.
Perception is strange stuff. Try new things with your girlfriend, with your spouse or with your friends. Love to hear different versions of the same stuff you could be interested in, different opinions and thoughts about everything. The multitude of approaches will highlight the important side of information, freeing you from the burden of useless junk. Let the situations you’re in balance the way you look at the life you’re living in general. Try examining a problem by different viewpoints, choose to establish new, better and healthier habits (quit smoking, drinking, going to bed late, for example).
Challenge our inner potential
by aiming higher and higher every time you can do so, you’ll find yourself submerged in a reality that allows you to face your fears, know your inner strength and act accordingly. Get to know your inner self, step by step. Meditation, dieting, training and working out in different manners, with different rules, with different mindsets. Develop inner strength by reading, getting to know things and loving the kind of culture and information you really want to be part of your life.
It is up to you, to build the path your life is going to run through.
I’ve decided to seriously get my life handled for good and I wish everyone could do the same. Obviously, this is no short-term voyage. Best self development and deep level changes take time, patience, effort, inner strength and will.
